SUMMARY:NICU Bedding Donation Drive
DESCRIPTION:The mission of The Preemie Project NICU Bedding Program is to create a comfortable\, colorful environment for families with donations of soft colorful sheets. Initially\, infants in the NICU are very critically ill. Most of the caregiving activities are performed by the nursing staff. Often\, the only caregiving act parents can perform for their child is to choose the sheets for their infant’s bed. \nHOW CAN YOU HELP?\nSew and donate flat sheets and fitted sheets to help our NICU families create a homelike atmosphere in their baby’s hospital room. \nCRAFTING GUIDELINES?\n\nCotton or flannel fabric may be used for sheets. \nCotton fabrics are preferred because they will last three times longer than flannel.\nPlease use cute baby prints or modern prints preferred by new moms for their nurseries.\nBright\, bold colors will stand up to the hospital’s harsh laundry best. See photo examples. \nIf using flannel fabric\, many reds and black patterns will bleed and are not recommended.\nDo not use fleece fabric for the flat sheets or fitted sheets\n\nHOW DO I MAKE BEDDING FOR THE NICU?\nJust visit our NICU bedding page on this website for all the sewing instructions. \nOR\, you can donate fabric and we will find the sewers. \n\nFlat sheet: 1 yard bright\, colorful cotton or flannel\nFitted sheet: 1.5 yards bright\, colorful cotton or flannel\n\nDonation Goals:\nFlat Sheets: 600 \nFitted Sheets: 400 \nNOTE: We have an overabundance of fleece pads at this time. \nDONATION DEADLINE: February 1\, 2021\nThe donation drive starts November 1 2020 and will run until February 1\, 2021 \nMail your donation to: \nThe Preemie Project\n2607 Flagstone Court\nCoralville\, IA 52241\nYou can also drop off your donation on the front step of the above address. Be sure to include your name\, address\, and email so we know who to thank \n
